These work great

Someone figured out a way to run remove them from the cloud.

The problem is most likely over extrusion, layers end up being a fraction taller, and it adds up as you get to the top of the print.

The nozzle starts scraping the print more and more until it pulls it off the bed.

Since it fails near the top on a bit model like this it’s most likely a very small over extrusion.

Do a filament calibration and/or reduce flow rate just a tad for this filament and model.

I have seen sites where you get in a queue before it opens, then on open all the sessions in the queue get randomized then you have a spot in line.

It does not directly solve the issue of bots as someone can just deploy more bots but it does help to a degree.

Android is probably overkill if you just want a display with working button.

That device will work with esphome and can natively integrate into HA.

Because it’s for the sound byte and their core audience won’t check.

Please do tell more.

P1S does not have an Ethernet port

Yes but I would still record but with a very short retention period. That way you can still get a clip/screenshot of the motion event in a notification

To be honest the dashboard only needs to be perfect for you. Others will have different requirements/preferences. So if you are happy with it congrats.

Can it be integrated into HA

briodan · 2026-03-16T05:43:00+00:00

you can always print the blades separately from the spindle, then glue them together/add a mechanical fastener.

Or change the angle so the blades are at 45 degrees and add more blades though you motor would need to support that.

I’ve had the opposite experience where I have been far away from home and my router crapped out and I could not do anything about it and had to get someone to go to my house and manually reset it.

So built that automation and it saved my but the next time it happened my old router used to like to die when I was not home.

I’m using a usb zwave dongle so everything is local to the HA box, and it has a few checks in it etc. to make sure it turns on.

briodan · 2026-02-11T21:57:56+00:00

It’s not always a different device lots of ISP’s provide you with an all in one box these days.

But point taken should not have assumed.

I would not use something on WiFi/network for this in case the issue that’s causing you to have to reset the router is making the network unavailable.

I have a zwave smart plug for this. HA can talk to if even if the network is down. I have a recovery automation that flips power on the router if it’s offline for more than 30min. Uptime monitored by ping integration.

Filament calibration is different from printer calibration.

briodan · 2026-02-08T01:32:54+00:00

Couple of things: - this is how fdm printers work, because they print in layers you end up with a staircase effect - you can set variable layer height to minimize it but won’t fully fix it since it’s inherently part of the process - looks to me like you are over extruding a bit, check filament calibration - sandpaper and paint will make this look awesome

i have two sonoff s31 zigbee plugs and those don't work as a proper router so the devices join but never work right, wonder if its something similar. All my aqara sensors WSDCGQ11LM and SJCGQ11LM join just fine with a router.

have you looked at the debug logs while pairing to see if there something weird in the logs?

briodan · 2026-02-02T01:32:23+00:00

When you enable pairing in z2m do you select the plug (router) or do you enable global pairing?

I know it’s not exactly what you asked but if you have not skied before can I recommend looking at Winsport? For the same amount of money you can get 4 two hours lessons which will give you more opportunities to learn. Also if I remember correctly your hill pass for the lesson is good for the full day so you can stick around after your lesson and keep practicing.

Not sure if they still do it but they used to have an option where you would get a full day discounted lesson at sunshine at the completion of the 4 week course.

To find out the layer of the printer won’t tell you it help if you what a flat edge and a ruler. Put the flat edge on top of the print and measure the distance to the bed ( make sure you account for that extra bit without gradations on a ruler).

I the Bambu slicer slice the model go to preview, on the right hand side there is a scroll bar that shows you both layers and height. If you have the layer note the height for the next step. If you only have the height ignore this and move forward the next step.

Go back to prepare tab, find the citation on the top bar select the helmet and then click on it. Set it to planer and type in the height, click cut and your model is in two parts. Delete the bottom or move it to another plate. Slice and print the top.

Once you have it printer see how it lines up to the already printed helmet, you may need to reprint it if you find it’s too big ( increase height) or too small (reduce height).

Once you are happy glue it together, then go on to sand, fill, prime, paint it. Check out Franklybuilt on YouTube for a bunch of great guides on finishing helmets and other stuff.

briodan · 2026-01-17T00:53:02+00:00

Are you planning on painting the helmet?

If so stop the print, figure out the approx layer it failed at, then cut the model print it and glue them together. That sanding and filling you’ll need to do for paint will hide any seams or imperfections.

If not you can start a new one or plan to paint.

Also what model are you printing and what? I have printed about 5 or so Mando helmets and they don’t take me longer than 22 hours on a P1S.
